Our dentists and team can examine your entire mouth with ease using an intraoral camera. Along with treatment rooms that feature wall-mounted monitors to easily view enlarged images of specific areas of the mouth, this technology helps us better understand your oral health needs and treatment options.
An intraoral camera is a tool that allows us to get a closer look at different parts of your teeth, gums, and mouth. The small, pen-shaped device takes high-quality digital photos of your teeth and gums, as well as other areas of your mouth, when needed. Since the intraoral camera is so small and easily maneuverable, we can use it to see angles in your mouth that are otherwise difficult to view. We also use the intraoral camera to better evaluate your oral health and diagnose dental problems like tooth decay, periodontal disease, tooth damage, and cracked or chipped teeth. The intraoral camera also helps us during follow-up appointments after a treatment has been completed.
Not only does our team get a better view of your smile, but the images the intraoral camera produces also allow patients to gain a better understanding of their oral health and dental treatments. We can also share these digital pictures with other dentists and specialists and submit them to dental insurance companies when required.
